Kayla was an absolute lifesaver during those early weeks postpartum. From the moment she came into our home, she went above and beyond to care for not only my newborn, but for me, my toddlers, and our entire household. She regularly checked in on me emotionally and made sure I was truly taking care of myself—reminding me to drink water, eat nourishing snacks, rest when I could, and giving me the support and reassurance I needed during such a vulnerable and overwhelming season. Her lactation support was also incredibly helpful and gave me confidence and guidance when I needed it most. What made Kayla so exceptional was that she understood that postpartum care is about the whole family. She helped with my newborn, entertained and cared for my toddlers, helped keep the house running smoothly, and even made sure our fridge was stocked with nourishing meals so I could focus on healing, bonding with my baby, and getting through those long days. She brought such a calming, comforting presence into our home. She anticipated needs before I even had to ask, offered encouragement without judgment, and made me feel genuinely cared for. Having someone there who could say, “Have you eaten? Have you had water? How are you feeling?” while also helping with the kids and household was invaluable. Kayla is incredibly knowledgeable, compassionate, dependable, and intuitive. She didn’t just support my baby—she supported me as a mother. And that made all the difference. I truly cannot recommend Kayla enough to any new or growing family. If you are considering postpartum doula or lactation support, hire her. You will be so grateful you did. 🤍
— Kristen Powell, review of Kayla Treffinger
As a midwife whom has worked with Kari often, I recommend her highly for her knowledge, professionalism that is well balanced by her loving and caring demeanor. She is an excellent doula and educator. She is at the top of my recommendations list!
— Alissa H., review of Kari Arcuri
Choosing a doula as a first-time mom in a new city felt incredibly important to me. I was looking for someone knowledgeable, warm, comforting, and completely nonjudgmental—someone I could trust while in such a vulnerable state. Kari exceeded all of those expectations and more. My birth experience was long and challenging, requiring days of support and even an early unexpected hospital visit. Kari came to our home as soon as we needed her and continuously held space not only for me, but for my husband as well. I’ll never forget when I had to go to the hospital unexpectedly—Kari was right there beside me, holding my hair when I got sick and rubbing my back, helping communicate my needs when contractions made it impossible for me to speak, and personally providing steady hip squeezes with my husband through every contraction. When I was finally able to rest, she stayed by my side to make sure I was safe and supported. When my birth plan didn’t go as expected, Kari remained a steady source of comfort and reassurance. She helped me navigate each change with care, always keeping my wishes at the forefront. Her nurturing and compassionate presence made all the difference during one of the most difficult and incredible experiences of my life. I will always be grateful for the strength, confidence, and unwavering support she gave me.

What is a midwife?
A midwife is a licensed medical professional who cares for low-risk pregnancies and mothers who want no-to-low intervention deliveries (e.g., home birth, birthing center delivery, water birth).
Can you pay for a midwife with HSA or FSA funds in Lompoc, CA?
Yes, you can use Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA) funds to pay for midwifery services, as long as those services are related to medical care. Always check the specific rules of your HSA or FSA plan, as there can be variations in what expenses are considered eligible between different plans.
Are midwives covered by insurance in Lompoc, CA?
California Medicaid covers certified nurse-midwife care in Lompoc, including prenatal, birth, and postpartum services, as required of Medicaid programs nationwide. Coverage for licensed or certified professional midwives attending home or birth-center deliveries depends on the plan and does not apply to every California member. Local options are very limited, with one midwife listed within 60 miles. For private insurance, check the plan’s benefits and network requirements.
What's the difference between a midwife and a doula?
A midwife is a trained health professional who helps women during labor, delivery, and after the birth of their babies. Midwives can provide gynecological examinations, prenatal care, and postpartum support. They are qualified to deliver babies and are trained to handle certain complications during childbirth. A doula, on the other hand, is a non-medical professional who provides emotional, physical, and educational support to a mother who is expecting, is experiencing labor, or has recently given birth. The doula's role is to help women have a safe, memorable, and empowering birthing experience. They are known for their continuous support, beginning during pregnancy and lasting through the postpartum period. While midwives have a broad scope of practice that is clinical in nature, doulas specialize in the non-clinical aspects of care. They might be preferred by mothers who are looking for continuous bedside support that is not typically provided by the medical staff. Doulas are known for their advocacy for the mother's wishes during childbirth, which can be especially valuable in hospital settings where the mother may desire a birth plan that deviates from standard procedures.
What's the difference between a midwife and an OBGYN?
A midwife is a healthcare professional who specializes in low-risk pregnancies, childbirth, and postpartum care. They typically emphasize a natural and holistic approach, focusing on minimal medical interventions. Midwives often work in birth centers, at home births, or in hospitals, depending on their certification and location. They provide personalized care and support throughout pregnancy and labor and may also assist with breastfeeding and newborn care. An OBGYN is a medical doctor who has completed extensive training, including medical school and a residency, specializing in obstetrics and gynecology. They care for all types of pregnancies, including high-risk cases, and are trained to handle medical complications, perform surgeries (like C-sections), and provide comprehensive reproductive healthcare beyond pregnancy. OBGYNs typically work in hospitals or clinics and can manage a broader range of medical situations.
Can I see a midwife for an IVF pregnancy?
Yes, you can see a midwife for an IVF pregnancy. Midwives are trained to provide care during pregnancy, including for those conceived through IVF, as long as the pregnancy is low-risk. They can help with prenatal care, labor, and delivery, and provide postpartum support. However, if your IVF pregnancy is considered high-risk or involves complications, you may need to work with an obstetrician in collaboration with the midwife to ensure proper care. Always consult with your healthcare provider to determine the best care plan for your situation.
